MY TOWN, CASTELLÓ D'EMPÚRIES

Castelló is on a hill about 17 meters high on the left of the river Muga and approximately 4 km from the sea. The township is divided into two parts: the originally core of town and  Empuriabrava. Empuriabrava has a long beach is one of the world's largest residential marine with 75.000 population in summer.

Castelló d'Empúries is a town in the region of Alt Emporda, Girona province. Acquired the status of capital of Empúries County after moving exposed to attacks from the sea, and becoming the authentic medieval capital of the Emporda. This past makes every year in September made a big celebration named “Terra de Trobadors”, during that there is music, troubadours, fighting knights, a popular medieval market, musical and theater performances, lectures topics Medieval and exhibitions.

My favorite part of Castelló is the Basilica. It's really beautiful and big, I don't understand how they  did it without machine. Also I love the prison. I hate the new part of Castelló, his residential zone, I think this new part doesn't fits well with the oldest part of Castelló.
